PURE Medical Spa offers laser hair removal at its Gold Coast Chicago clinic at 875 N Dearborn Street, using IPL (intense pulsed light) and laser technology for long-term hair reduction across the face and body. Laser hair removal works on the principle of selective photothermolysis: light energy at melanin-absorbing wavelengths is absorbed by the pigment in the hair follicle's bulb and bulge, generating heat that destroys the follicle's regenerative capacity. Because only follicles in the active growth phase (anagen) are susceptible to thermal destruction at any given treatment, multiple sessions are required to target follicles as they cycle through anagen over time. PURE typically recommends 6–8 sessions spaced 4–8 weeks apart for most body areas, with facial hair often requiring more sessions due to the influence of hormonal cycles on hair growth in that region. Treatable areas at PURE include the full leg (upper and lower), bikini line, Brazilian (full bikini area including labia), underarms, upper lip, chin, full face, arms, back, chest, and abdomen. Small areas (upper lip, chin, underarms) are generally priced lower per session than large areas (full legs, back). The clinic advertises packages of up to 70% off versus per-session pricing, making multi-session commitment significantly more cost-effective. Brazilian laser hair removal is a popular treatment at the clinic, with per-session pricing approximately $175–$400 depending on the package tier. PURE's use of IPL-based equipment is appropriate for clients with lighter-to-medium skin tones and darker hair colours; clients with very dark skin tones or lighter hair should discuss suitability with the clinician at consultation. PURE Beauty Dollars loyalty points can be applied toward hair removal packages.
